Re: spoilers (that suck) ahoy

The eye-drives were because the moment you look away from the Science, you forget them. The Eye-drives acted as a constant reminder that the Enemy Is Out There.

ayrt

Ah, right, I'd forgotten that. That doesn't excuse what's wrong with the rest of the episode, though. Or that whole arc, in fact. (That was riiiiiight about the time I was starting to have my doubts that watching this era was anything other than a colossal time-sink and nothing more.)

sa

Although! If the Silence really had been "the Science" that would have been a vast improvement, IMO. >:-)

sa again

And I still want to know how the Silence were "totally eradicated" (by the one of them hypnotizing every who watched the Moon landing in '69 into killing them all--thus turning the whole human race into genocidal murderers being the implication) when there were still vast swathes of places on Earth that actually did not "see the Moon landing live."

But I also want to know things like, why did they wear black suits?

I think it was to try to evoke images of The Gentlemen from Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Slenderman from...actually, where is he from, anyway? I first heard of him from the Something Awful forums, but I've also heard about Marble Hornets and Everyman HYBRID, so -shrug- basically the point was to instill fear by reminding people of other, terrifying villains.

I thought they were supposed to evoke the 'We are the government and we're here to help' type imagery but that might be giving the writers too much credit.

Okay, is anyone else really fucking pissed this had no fallout? I don't really mind the Doctor doing scary manipulative things sometimes, when he thinks there aren't any good alternatives. But the way no one, including him, even seemed to be bothered to at least treat that course of action with the seriousness and weight it deserved really rubbed me the wrong way. Especially after the season came and went without any mention of or consequences from the fact every human who watched the moon landing is now a brainwashed killer which someone should have been affected by. It's like what happened to Adam Mitchell in season 1, but a hundred times worse.

It wasnt just for people who saw it live, it's been seen all the time. I was born in '80 and I've seen it more than once.

And by "Science" I meant Silence.

Yeah, I think I started getting a little put off by the plots by that point, but I've really been hit hard by it this season too.
